Magical Enby against transphobia

on mobile. sadface. this looks totally rad.

Short narrative-focused game with a transmasculine non-binary protagonist. Chapters 1 and 2 take about five minutes to play through. It's trans-affirming content, but quite rough around the edges at present. Should be interesting to see how it turns out! 2/5 stars - serviceable.

The art is very good and the anti-transphobia content is solid, but at present the bigotry portrayed feels a bit distanced from the protagonist's personal life since all the microaggressions are stemming from people they don't really know (e.g. medical staff, social media, TV, random strangers). It's doubtless tricky to strike a balance between them as a stand-in for everyone with the same labels versus them as an individual character - I'll be interested to see how later chapters might handle/avoid this.

I really liked the mix-and-match options for changing the avatar's outfit. Both designs present in the current version were cute and fun to try out! It felt like a charming and playful exploration of gender presentation in a very intuitive video game format.

The 2.5D shooter-style mechanic for throwing speech bubbles feels like a logical design choice, but the gameplay itself isn't very compelling at present. Perhaps the dev will refine it as they gain skills and confidence over time. This also applies for minor hiccups such as occasional typos and the lack of any animation for the player avatar.

Very cute artstyle - feel this so much - got with the queer bundle 2023, keen to see how it develops and grows :)

This was incredibly cathartic to play, can't wait for more content soon!

love this

The part about people calling nb people not trans because they dress too feminine hits hard. I'm high fem nb and sometimes I wonder if I'm a fraud. I'm like the Pokemon Pheromosa, my high-fem agender icon. Thank you for this game. It's very cathartic!

I love to just meet another queer person and say hi, the game makes it feel very good too!

After the second time I found the other nonbinary person I ended up on a brown background and I couldn't tell if I was still moving or if i hit a dead end

The illustrations are cute and it's a good representation of the kinds of discrimination and microaggressions nonbinary people face (even from people in the lgbtq+ community).
